#1. Please share with us 5 things you did that helped you grow & become the professional you are today
- Reading … I mean a lot. 40-50 books / year are doable. They can mix in a few novels / literature as well.
- Made plans and fought to achieve them. Think about where you want to be in 6 months or 1 year and define the steps you need to take to get there.
- I love programming and software engineering. I do it daily, with dedication.
- Built some useful daily habits that are helping me to get better. For example listen to audio books when driving, daily reading, daily plan of work, etc.
- Talked to the people I admire and I used these talks as sources of inspiration. So, don’t be afraid to approach your professional idols, they are people just like you.
#2. What challenges will the participants find solutions to during your session at I T.A.K.E Unconference 2017?
